    Ok well done to Liz who actually bothered to send me some answers! She gets 3.5 for this week!

    Answers
    1. Who did the Swans beat in their first match in Sydney after the 1982 move north?
    Melbourne

    2. Who won the 2001 Academy Award for Best Actress?
    Halle Berry - people will argue this one, but the award is actually awarded the year AFTER, so Berry was awarded the 2001 award in 2002, whilst Julia Roberts won the 2000 award for her role in Erin Brockovich in 2001.

    3. What nation shares a name with a US state?
    Georgia

    4. Who was Australia's first Prime Minister?
    Edmund Barton

    5. True or false: Young drivers in New South Wales must now pass 5 different tests on the path to becoming fully licensed?
    False - they must pass 4 - the knowledge, driving, hazard perception and combined knowledge and hazard perception tests. But i did give Liz half a point for thinking outside the square a bit and suggesting the identity and residency tests to get your learner's in the first place!

    Hey, no fair, I didn't even get to see the questions till after you posted answers!!!!!!!

    I'm on the Chandwagon!!!

    If you cannot compete for the premiership, it's better to be young and exciting than middle-aged and dowdy.

    Yeah no fair. I was away fighting fires. But I got them all right . Except I would have spelt Edmund as Edmond. So I guess I would have lost anyway

    oops, sorry for posting in a thread that is kinda in the inappropriate forum

    MJ - trivia warmup is a RWO thing because of the trivia night - therefore it goes in RWO chat!

    And we've still got quite a few weeks before trivia night so there's plenty of time to catch up!
